That's exactly what i said. Take it for a day out at basky and you will forget about selling it pretty quickly. On that note i am hopefully going to have my car tuned next month and will be organizing a quiet track day for a bit of a "run in/learn how to drive your car again" session if anyone is interested. ie. jack lol.

I'll be down in tassie on the 27th-28th of July and should be at the track on the 28th if anyone else is keen ;)

Wtf why are basic car trailers like 4-5k. That's like quarter of a Evo 8. That shits not happening

That's why I ended up going for one of Az's trailers, not much more than a stock standard POS trailer, but 10x better by far. We saw a number of wooden based trailers which were still a fortune, and basically useless and horrible for what we wanted.

At least the resale value should still be pretty high

Az's trailers sound nice but I simply can't justify it. Brody thinks 2k if we were to build, have a contact on the steel, that's more like it. Might be able to put slide in cage sides on one and use it as a yard trailer also.... Get rid of parents box trailer kill two birds with one stone. But paying 4-5k I won't be.

Well i dropped into pro auto today only to find that they're closed till Thursday!!! So i hope he won't be too busy when he's back and can fit me in cause im keen to get on the track!

Glad to hear you finally got motor back. :yes:

QUESTION - for our local super sprints, hill climbs and time attack event, does a unregistered vehicle require a log booked cage? my Bond cage can't be log booked, I see on the mainland this seems to be the case. all because its not road registered?

Just a heads up as some people seemed interested in heading out, I'm all set to go for a track day this Sunday (28th July). Would be good to see some of you guys there :)

Hopefully it doesn't rain too much.. I still don't have windscreen wiper arms!

Clandestine, Rainx is you're friend!! 10 bux a bottle works wonders. I'm still a little way off, have actually got a bit done recently but awaiting for a few things to turn up and still yet to order some others... Made my canards yesterday and today, about 10 hours from start to finish. Thinking October, fingers crossed

Would love to come but turns out when I got my car tuned the other week it still has oil smoke issues on boost which need sorting out. :verymad: Was considering a tester at basky to see exactly how bad the problem is but don't think I'll be ready for sunday.

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
